As cast iron is a thicker and denser metal, it takes longer to heat up than other materials but holds the heat for longer. Long-Term DurabilityCause of the greater carbon content, the fire pit is able to withstand harsh weather with minimal maintenance. You do not worry about the fire pit being placed outdoors and against rain or snow. Spark ScreenThe spark screen prevents sparks and embers from breaching the pit and burning people, pets, or the surrounding area. Sparks can also land on surrounding debris such as clothing or dry leaves and ignite a fire; however, a spark screen can prevent these types of fire hazards. Fire PokerThe fire poker allows you to easily adjust wood in your fire pit while it is burning. And keeps you away from the heat when you lift the spark screen. Wood GrateWood grate is a great option to maximize the amount of heat in a pit. These are steel grates that are placed in the bottom of a fire pit to lift the wood up a little and allow more room for oxygen and air circulation. Repel MosquitoesOn summer night, the fire pit is also a powerful tool for warding off mosquitoes. Research confirms that burning popular seasoning plants, specifically thyme, is particularly effective of 85% to 89% protection from mosquitoes for up to 90 minutes.
